ABOUT+CONTACT

Hey, sugarpants::

I’m Dyana, an oracle, emcee and creator of SuperConditions, a process that teaches you how to articulate, in your own words, why you do what you do and designing your business systems around that gold.

More than anything else, I care about making the world more humane.

If I could only name one thing I’m really good at, it’s listening between the lines to find the real question at hand.

When it comes to decision-making and leadership, I believe that if you can clearly say why you do what you do, and design your own systems to get it done, then the products, services, and art you create will become easier to describe, deliver and stand behind.

Prior to my current work, I was a microsurgery technician, Olympics organizer, horse trainer and secretary to the General Counsel of a multi-national corporation. Then I realized:: I had NO business being anyone’s secretary.

15 years, 1000s of clients and workshop participants and 20+ speaking gigs later, here I am.

Today, I work with performers, designers, professional athletes and authors–some call it professional development, others call it leadership mentoring–I call it teaching you how to navigate the stuff that usually shuts you down and makes you act like a jerk.

Sometimes, my work looks like an ass-kicking from stage. Other times, it’s a dream, delivered live in the middle of the night. Most times, it’s a deep-dive, 4-month one-on-one initiation to SuperConditions, helping you understand what requirements you need to operate at your best, then designing systems to help you deliver, relate, and make the world a better place.

Ultimately, all of my work is about answering the real questions. Everything gets better when people, like you and I, can trust our own decisions and be of deeper service.

My goal is for us to stop asking:
What’s WRONG with me?
and start asking: What am I truly capable of?

Here are excerpts of client love (more here) to give you some insight into me/my work::

“secret weapon”
“she pushes you and doesn’t take any guff”
“no holds barred”
“never fails to bring to light at least one gem (typically several) in every interaction with her”
“makes my palms sweat and my heart beat faster”
“after years of therapy, business school, marketing, training programs and self-guided personal development, Dyana cut to the chase in the first call and we got down to my real questions. I doubled my income, finished my book and have systems in place that make my work easier to handle.”

When I’m not playing with strangers, cooking, watching underdog movies, you’ll find me dreaming, designing new problem-solving games and teaching Student Success at Santa Monica College.

Here’s a little you-read-this-far prize: drop your name + email here for a juicy lesson on how to describe + pitch yourself to the people who need you. No more feeling like a deer-in-the-headlights when someone asks, “What do you do?”

have sunglasses, phone, 10 Hello, I’m Really Good At stickers(amazing how handy they come in all kinds of situations), a blank thank-you card, 3×5 cards, pens-never-pencils, a go-bag of toiletries, just in case I’m invited on an adventure, in my purse at all times;
